How long does it take to walk half a mile?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080924131152AAtZm1e

The average person walks at 3 mph, therefore 15 minutes would be average.

It depends on the length of your legs and what you'd consider normal speed, but it should be between 5 to 7 minutes.

On average how long does it take to see results?

Q: I am NOT exercising to lose weight! I'm exercising to get stronger.If I walked a mile and ran a quarter of a mile everyday 5 days a week and lifted weights(light weights) 3 days a week, how many weeks or months will it take to see results or notice I'm getting stronger?Don't say depends!I am naturally slender. I'm 123 ibs and no body fat.

A: Between 1 month and 1 year. Really though, it depends...just try for new resistance and speed levels and try for yourself.Edit: If you are naturally slender, it might be quicker or slower, you might have a fast metabolism or a normal one and the extra food you eat can put on strength and weight quite fast.

Does anyone have any tips for long-distance training when running?

Q: I've just recently started running, and I can't go very far yet; just about 1/4 mile sprints at a time, then stop and walk for awhile. I'd like to be able to run whole miles and not have to stop and walk every quarter-mile. Any suggestions?

A: to run for a long distance, you need to train doing distance running. I am a triathlete and when i want to increase endurance, I will start adding distance. This means MIDDLE SPEED OR SLOW speed running for longer periods of time. NOT SPRINTS. If I want to work on my speed, I will do sprints.http://www.jeffgalloway.com/This guy was an olympic runner in the 70s. I have heard him speak, and I disagree with alot about what he says regarding crossover training and stretching. HOWEVER, he is a proponent of doing a combo of running and walking and has EXTREMELY good results from it. Check out his website and if you like what he has to say, go to the library and borrow his book. Again, he is controversial, but he does have a terrific following.

I want to run a mile.?

Q: My goal is to run a mile. I have never been able to run a mile, or even a half mile in my entire life. Everyday I have been walking and running on the treadmill at the gym. I can barely run a quarter mile now. How long do you think it will be until I can run a whole mile straight?

A: As for your basic question, "How long...until I can run a mile..." There is not enough information to give you a number of weeks or days. The key to increasing your distance, whether it be from 1/4 mile to 1 mile or from 1 mile to 20 is consistent training while monitoring your intensity.Try this: For the next three weeks run or walk 1/2 mile at whatever pace you can comfortably cover the distance, and do that 3 days each week (not consecutive days). Don't worry about speed right now. The speed will come as you develop a milage base. For weeks 4, 5 and 6 increase the distance to 3/4 mile. And for weeks 7, 8 and 9 increase to 1 mile. On week 10, drop back to 1/2 mile and increase the amount of time that you run by 10% each week until you are running a whole mile.If you are serious about wanting to run a mile, you have to be consistent in your training. You also have to control the urge to increase distance or speed faster than your body can adapt. After a few weeks you will start feeling really good and be tempted to jump forward in the program. DON'T DO IT.Good luck.
